Ders oluşturuluyor...
1
loyalty has an expiration date.
2
And what I mean by that is, oftentimes you're loyal to people long after their loyalty to you has gone.
3
Because you're a good person, you overlook it and you just remain the person you are.
4
Loyal to a person whose loyalty has expired for you.
5
Loyalty has an expiration date.
6
You just have to wake up and realize that the expiration date has expired, that you got some bad milk now.
7
You just got some bad milk.
8
And when you realize that, it's okay.
9
You ain't got to trip.
10
You ain't got to confront her.
11
She has given you permission to be free.
12
You should just take it.
13
Go on and chill.
14
Call every night, hey girl.
15
Y'all ain't even gotta break up.
16
Hey girl, how you doing?
17
Click.
18
Just wondering if you have any advice on what you did when you turned 40 or how you deal with getting older.
19
Yeah, you're freaking out because you're turning 40?
20
Yeah, I'm just stressing out about it.
21
Like, she's, it's crazy.
22
It's a great thing, man.
23
See, remember this, bruh.
24
Old is the gold.
25
It's the gold, man, of all of us.
26
It's like, It's like the coolest thing ever to live to get to another birthday.
27
It's such a cool thing, man.
28
You're still here, you got another shot, every day God wakes you up is a sign from him that he ain't through with you yet.
29
Yeah, man.
30
It's a celebration, man.
31
Hey, I'm 61.
32
I'm so cool with it.
33
I mean, look, you gotta be able to handle 40.
34
He let him stick that needle upside your neck like that.
35
You have learned one thing from all of this.
36
Stop talking about your relationship to other people.
37
Here is the best advice I ever got.
38
When you get married, form a two-handed circle.
39
Don't let nobody else in that circle.
40
Because if you let your mama in, she gonna mess it up.
41
You can't let your friends in, they gonna mess it up.
42
Form a two-handed circle, don't let nobody in it.
43
You good.
44
Most men in here sitting next to a woman, that brother right there, the frat brother with the glass on, see the woman sitting next to him?
45
He hit jackpot.
46
Turn around, see that man up there with the green shirt on?
47
Look at the woman sitting next to him.
48
He hit jackpot.
49
It's not an accident.
50
See this couple right here on the front row?
51
Look at her.
52
Now look at him.
53
He hit the jackpot.
54
Y'all seen my wife Marjorie.
55
Now look at me.
56
Jackpot.
57
Now in that, you kinda, you trying to hold on tight.
58
But if you squeeze something too tight, it's like toothpaste.
59
If you squeeze toothpaste too tight, it get out the tube.
60
Let her have say so around the house.
61
Now you got a good thing, before you squeeze toothpaste out on the floor, let her go, cause you ain't gonna get no finer chick than this right here.
62
Look, people have kids out of wedlock all the time.
63
That says nothing about you.
64
That's not, that don't make you a bad person, that don't make you something wrong with you.
65
Oh, you know how many, you know how many, good people make mistakes all the time.
66
The problem is God don't make no mistakes.
67
Pretty good deal.
68
You gonna be fired.
69
I'm seven years old, October 8th, 1985, Hilarity's Comedy Club.
70
Walked in the comedy club, first time in my life, won amateur night, $50.
71
Drove 40 minutes home, cried all the way home.
72
This girl I wrote with, she said, why you crying, it ain't but $50.
73
She said, you don't even understand, I'm born.
74
She said, what you mean you born?
75
I said, I know what I'm gonna do the rest of my life.
76
She said, you ain't win but $50.
77
I said, nah, I've been praying my whole life, God, what is it?
78
My life gotta be more than this.
79
I won that comedy competition.
80
I went to work October 9th, the next morning, and quit my job.
81
I'm gonna tell you something.
82
That decision cost me everything I had.
83
I lost everything.
84
I lost my family.
85
I lost friends.
86
I lost everything.
87
I became homeless.
88
I lived in a car for three years.
89
But I just saw this I saw this I saw this vision I just pursued it.
90
I said wow, that's it
91
You have to take chances in life if you don't take chances in life
92
You'll never have the life God has for you life is about risk If you play it safe in life,
93
you ain't gonna have much of a life If you play it safe, you won't have much of a life Life is risk.
94
It takes courage to pursue your dream.
95
I just did it.
96
It cost me everything, but eventually, God is very good, man, when He sees you take a leap of faith.
97
He supplies you everything you need.
98
Now, it's gonna cost you something, but most people are not willing to pay what it costs to go after your dream,
99
because you're gonna have to hurt a little bit.
100
And most people don't like being uncomfortable.
101
If you don't want to be uncomfortable, please do not pursue success.
102
Because success is a very uncomfortable feeling.
103
And I just learned to be comfortable being uncomfortable.
104
If you can get that in your head, this too shall pass.
105
Every moment of everything you've ever gone through, God got you through it.
106
You didn't even realize it.
107
He just got you through it.
108
You can't name one thing he didn't pull you through.
109
Well, I lost my mother.
110
I'm still grieving over there.
111
I lost my mama 21 years ago.
112
I still grieve over it, but I'm here.
113
You know, I got through it.
114
You gonna get through it.
115
But you gotta take chance in life, man.
116
Can't play it safe, y'all.
117
You gotta jump, you gotta go for it.
118
Let's go.
119
Well, here's the deal.
120
When you have a massive goal,
121
something that's big, you must first make it something that not reaching it is unacceptable.
122
Me not being who God made me to be, me not living my dream was unacceptable for me.
123
Now, when you get faced with a challenge like living in your car for three years, what happened was I had a dream that was so big,
124
my dreams were bigger than all my problems.
125
You know what I'm saying?
126
See, if your dreams aren't really big enough, and your problems are bigger than your dreams,
127
then your problems will be bigger than your dreams.
128
But if your dreams are so big, I had no problem that I was not willing to endure to get to my dream.
129
Now, the key you said it though, was step by step.
130
Remember this saying, inch by inch, anything's a cinch.
131
Inch by inch, see?
132
So you gotta set incremental goals along the way.
133
On your way to, let's say you wanna be a millionaire, but let's say you only make $5,000 a year right now,
134
but you want to be a millionaire, then you have got to take whatever you did to make $5,000 and duplicate it so you can make 10.
135
But when you make 10, that should be a minor celebration.
136
Then when you make 20, that should be another minor celebration.
137
Don't stay frustrated because you haven't reached the million.
138
Because it takes a long time to make a million dollars.
139
But let's just say you're making $250,000.
140
There's another celebration you should have.
141
So you have to enjoy the journey because the journey is not going to change.
142
If you wait until you reach your goal to celebrate, you're gonna be, it's mentally debilitating.
143
So you have to have monumental steps along the way.
144
and just make inch by inch anything's a cinch.
145
Set very doable goals as you're trying to reach the impossible thing.
146
Me being a TV star from where I was was an impossible thing and everybody told me that.
147
Every single body I knew told me that's impossible.
148
A television star.
149
You go work with your father and your brothers for construction.
150
So when I was in high school, I worked construction with my father.
151
I hated it.
152
I was gonna do a .
153
I'm digging holes and carrying buckets of tar.
154
I don't wanna do this .
155
It's good money right here.
156
I kept looking on TV, man.
157
You know, first time I saw a black person on TV in the United States, when he came on TV, all the black people went inside to watch this black man
158
on TV cause no black man had ever been on TV in America and spoke.
159
I'm going to go to the next video.

Why This Steve Harvey Clip Is Perfect for English Speaking Practice
This video is a goldmine for learners because it blends casual conversation with impactful storytelling, mirroring real-life communication. Steve Harvey’s tone shifts from earnest advice to playful humor, exposing you to natural rhythm and intonation—key for sounding fluent. The mix of short, punchy phrases (“You ain’t got to trip”) and reflective statements (“Old is the gold”) makes it ideal for practicing shadow speech, a technique where you mimic a speaker’s pace, stress, and tone to build muscle memory.
Breaking Down Natural English: 3 Key Phrases
- “Loyalty has an expiration date.” This metaphor (“expiration date”) is a common way to make abstract ideas relatable. Notice how “has an” is reduced to “has an” (no over-enunciation), a natural speech pattern. Mimicking this helps you avoid robotic pronunciation.
- “You ain’t got to confront her.” The contraction “ain’t got to” is informal but widely used in spoken English. It’s shorter than “you don’t have to,” showing how native speakers simplify language. Practice saying this quickly to master conversational flow.
- “Every day God wakes you up is a sign from him that he ain’t through with you yet.” This long sentence uses pauses after “up” and “him” to emphasize meaning. Shadowing this teaches you to pause naturally, not just at commas, which improves clarity.
A Simple Shadowing Routine to Improve English Pronunciation
Use the shadowing technique with this video for 10–15 minutes daily: 1. Watch a 30-second clip, focusing on mouth movements and stress. 2. Play the clip again, pausing after each sentence to repeat it immediately—match the speed and tone. 3. Record yourself, then compare to the original. Note where your pronunciation or rhythm differs (e.g., “expiration date” vs. “ex-pi-RA-tion date”). 4. Repeat until your recording sounds nearly identical. This shadow speak practice trains your brain to process and reproduce English like a native, boosting confidence in real conversations.
By focusing on natural phrases and using shadowspeaks techniques, you’ll move beyond memorization to true fluency—one clip at a time.
Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
